Amazon Amazon Certifications SAA-C02 Questions & Answers

  • Question 251:

    A company has two AWS accounts: Production and Development There are code changes ready in the Development account to push to the Production account In the alpha phase, only two senior developers on the development team need

    Which solution meets these requirements and is the MOST operationally efficient?

    A. Server-side encryption with customer-provided keys (SSE-C)

    B. Server-side encryption with Amazon S3 managed keys (SSE-S3)

  • Question 253:

    A company has an application that generates a large number of files, each approximately 5 MB in size. The files are stored in Amazon S3. Company policy requires the files to be stored for 4 years before they can be deleted. Immediate accessibility is always required as the files contain critical business data that is not easy to reproduce. The files are frequently accessed in the first 30 days of the object creation but are rarely accessed after the first 30 days. Which storage solution is MOST cost-effective?

    A. Create an S3 bucket lifecycle policy to move files from S3 Standard to S3 Glacier 30 days from object creation. Delete the files 4 years after object creation.

    B. Create an S3 bucket lifecycle policy to move files from S3 Standard to S3 One Zone-Infrequent Access (S3 One Zone-IA) 30 days from object creation. Delete the files 4 years after object creation.

    C. Create an S3 bucket lifecycle policy to move files from S3 Standard to S3 Standard-Infrequent Access (S3 Standard-IA) 30 days from object creation. Delete the files 4 years after object creation.

    D. Create an S3 bucket lifecycle policy to move files from S3 Standard to S3 Standard-Infrequent Access (S3 Standard-IA) 30 days from object creation. Move the files to S3 Glacier 4 years after object creation.

  • Question 254:

    A company runs an online marketplace web application on AWS. The application serves hundreds of thousands of users during peak hours. The company needs a scalable, near-real-time solution to share the details of millions of financial transactions with several other internal applications. Transactions also need to be processed to remove sensitive data before being stored in a document database for low-latency retrieval.

    What should a solutions architect recommend to meet these requirements?

    A. Store the transactions data into Amazon DynamoDB. Set up a rule in DynamoDB to remove sensitive data from every transaction upon write. Use DynamoDB Streams to share the transactions data with other applications.

    B. Stream the transactions data into Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose to store data in Amazon DynamoDB and Amazon S3. Use AWS Lambda integration with Kinesis Data Firehose to remove sensitive data. Other applications can consume the data stored in Amazon S3.

    C. Stream the transactions data into Amazon Kinesis Data Streams. Use AWS Lambda integration to remove sensitive data from every transaction and then store the transactions data in Amazon DynamoDB. Other applications can consume the transactions data off the Kinesis data stream.

    D. Store the batched transactions data in Amazon S3 as files. Use AWS Lambda to process every file and remove sensitive data before updating the files in Amazon S3. The Lambda function then stores the data in Amazon DynamoDB. Other applications can consume transaction files stored in Amazon S3.

  • Question 255:

    A company has a 10 Gbps AWS Direct Connect connection from its on-premises servers to AWS. The workloads using the connection are critical. The company requires a disaster recovery strategy with maximum resiliency that maintains the

    current connection bandwidth at a minimum.

    What should a solutions architect recommend?

    A. Set up a new Direct Connect connection in another AWS Region.

    B. Set up a new AWS managed VPN connection in another AWS Region.

    C. Set up two new Direct Connect connections: one in the current AWS Region and one in another Region.

    D. Set up two new AWS managed VPN connections: one in the current AWS Region and one in another Region.

  • Question 256:

    A company is building a document storage application on AWS. The Application runs on Amazon EC2 instances in multiple Availability Zones. The company requires the document store to be highly available. The documents need to be returned immediately when requested. The lead engineer has configured the application to use Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) to store the documents, but is willing to consider other options to meet the availability requirement.

    What should a solution architect recommend?

    A. Snapshot the EBS volumes regularly and build new volumes using those snapshots in additional Availability Zones.

    B. Use Amazon EBS for the EC2 instance root volumes. Configure the application to build the document store on Amazon S3.

    C. Use Amazon EBS for the EC2 instance root volumes. Configure the application to build the document store on Amazon S3 Glacier.

    D. Use at least three Provisioned IOPS EBS volumes for EC2 instances. Mount the volumes to the EC2 instances in RAID 5 configuration.

  • Question 257:

    A web application must persist order data to Amazon S3 to support neat-real time processing. A solutions architect needs create an architecture that is both scalable and fault tolerant. Which solutions meet these requirements? (Select TWO )

    A. Write the order event to an Amazon DynamoDB table. Use DynamoDB Streams to trigger an AWS Lambda function that parses the payload and writes the data to Amazon S3.

    B. Write the order event to an Amazon Simple Queue Service (Amazon SQS) queue. Use the queue to trigger an AWS Lambda function that parsers the payload and writes the data to Amazon S3.

    C. Write the order event to an Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) topic. Use the SNS topic to trigger an AWS Lambda function that parses the payload and writes the data to Amazon S3

    D. Write the order event to an Amazon Simple Queue Service (Amazon SQS) queue. Use an Amazon EventBridge (Amazon CloudWatch Events) rule to trigger an AWS Lambda function that parses the payload and writes the data to Amazon S3

    E. Write the order event to an Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS) topic Use an Amazon EventBridge (Amazon CloudWatch Events) rule to trigger an AWS Lambda function that parses the payload and writes the data to Amazon S3

  • Question 258:

    A company wants to share forensic accounting data is stored in an Amazon RDS DB instance with an external auditor. The Auditor has its own AWS account and requires its own copy of the database. How should the company securely share the database with the auditor?

    A. Create a read replica of the database and configure IAM standard database authentication to grant the auditor access.

    B. Copy a snapshot of the database to Amazon S3 and assign an IAM role to the auditor to grant access to the object in that bucket.

    C. Export the database contents to text files, store the files in Amazon S3, and create a new IAM user for the auditor with access to that bucket.

    D. Make an encrypted snapshot of the database, share the snapshot, and allow access to the AWS Key Management Service (AWS KMS) encryption key.

  • Question 259:

  • Question 260:

    An online shopping application accesses an Amazon RDS Multi-AZ DB instance. Database performance is slowing down the application. After upgrading to the next-generation instance type, there was no significant performance

    improvement.

    Analysis shows approximately 700 IOPS are sustained, common queries run for long durations and memory utilization is high.

    Which application change should a solutions architect recommend to resolve these issues?

    A. Migrate the RDS instance to an Amazon Redshift cluster and enable weekly garbage collection

    B. Separate the long-running queries into a new Multi AZ RDS database and modify the application to query whichever database is needed

    C. Deploy a two-node Amazon ElastiCache cluster and modify the application to query the cluster first and query the database only if needed

    D. Create an Amazon Simple Queue Service (Amazon SQS) FIFO queue for common queries and query it first and query the database only if needed
